My father instilled in me
That even if I hang out with bad company
I should not be seen involved
That business and women
Are conquered with care
And that eggs and money
Should never be borrowed
My mother advised me
That one must be grateful
But never humiliated
Noble but not bowed
Humble but not submissive
And to those who trust me
I should deliver good results

I came out well-advised
A bit poorly educated
But not afraid of work
Those who walk by my side
Know that I am a good soldier
That if a favor is needed
I won't let them down
I came out well-advised
A bit poorly educated
But not afraid of work
Those who walk by my side
Know that I am a good soldier
That if a favor is needed
I won't let them down

Now they see me relaxed
But no one imagines
All the work I've done
That every peso earned
No one has given to me
I wasn't born to be a hypocrite
I have never betrayed
I thank my parents
I grew up well-advised
I measure with the same stick
With which I have been treated
I have good friends
Not everything has been so bad
I am a selective guy
I have tested my partners

I came out well-advised
A bit poorly educated
But not afraid of work
Those who walk by my side
Know that I am a good soldier
That if a favor is needed
I won't let them down
I came out well-advised
A bit poorly educated
But not afraid of work
Those who walk by my side
Know that I am a good soldier
That if a favor is needed
I won't let them down
